Inspection Applications for SuPAR in Manufacturing & Beyond

Inspection Applications for SuPAR in Manufacturing & Beyond

In manufacturing, quality is everything, but traditional visual inspections are often slow, inconsistent, and reliant on outdated tools like 2D drawings. Enter SuPAR, the AR inspection tool from Trilion Quality Systems, designed to bring CAD data to the shop floor and revolutionize quality control through interactive, real-time visual inspection.

More than just a digital overlay, SuPAR is a powerful, mobile tool built for engineers, inspectors, and technicians who need fast, accurate, and paperless inspections anywhere, anytime.

Let’s explore how SuPAR is being used in real-world settings to improve quality, cut costs, and boost productivity.

Automotive Applications

In the automotive industry, speed and precision are crucial. SuPAR helps engineers detect issues earlier in the process, keeping production lines moving and minimizing costly rework.

Key Applications:

  • Tool & Die Buy-Off and Validation – Instantly verify press tools using 3D CAD overlays.
  • BIW (Body-in-White) Targets Inspection – Check structural points quickly and consistently.
  • Supplier Incoming Part Validation – Avoid delays by inspecting parts before they hit the line.
  • Logistic Rack & Packaging Inspection – Ensure shipping containers and racks match CAD specifications.
  • Meisterbock & Cubing – Validate complex assemblies directly on master jigs.

Result: Faster buy-offs, fewer production delays, and better supplier accountability.

Aerospace Applications

Aerospace demands the highest levels of precision and SuPAR delivers. Whether you're working on a jet engine or an airframe, SuPAR enables quick validation of parts and assemblies, ensuring everything aligns before takeoff.

Key Applications:
  • Jet Engine Assembly & Maintenance – Align parts and identify defects before they cause failures.
  • Fuselage, Wing, and Canopy Assembly – Visually inspect complex assemblies with full 3D context.
  • Wax Model and Investment Casting Verification – Confirm geometric accuracy of molds and models.
  • Structural Component Checks – Use CAD overlays to validate everything from brackets to bulkheads.
  • Training & PMDU – Support hands-on training and process monitoring using AR visual aids.

Result: Reduced rework, enhanced training, and improved safety through precision alignment.

Transportation Applications

For commercial vehicles, railcars, and agricultural machinery, SuPAR provides a fast and flexible solution to inspect large and complex components without being tied to a fixed workstation.

Key Applications:

  • Welded & Machined Parts Inspection – Spot welding defects or geometric misalignments with ease.

  • Plastic Parts Geometry Checks – Confirm part shape and fit across a variety of suppliers.

  • Assembly Positioning Support (PDMU) – Use AR to guide assembly in real time, improving accuracy.

  • Welding & Fixture Maintenance – Quickly validate and maintain tooling used in heavy assembly.

Result: Consistent quality across supply chains and faster production line approvals.

Heavy Industry Applications

In industries like power generation, construction equipment, and large-scale manufacturing, visual inspections can be time-consuming and subjective. SuPAR helps standardize and speed up the process.

Key Applications:

  • Power Transformers, Boilers, Turbines – Validate large and heavy welded structures on-site.
  • Casted Part Geometry & Assembly – Ensure proper fit and finish of complex castings.
  • Electrical Cabinets & Work Machines – Use AR to inspect assemblies with multiple connection points.
  • Supplier Part Inspection – Confidently approve incoming parts before integration.

Result: Major time savings, reduced risk of integration errors, and enhanced field documentation.

Why SuPAR?

Across all these industries, SuPAR helps teams:
  • Detect errors faster than traditional inspection methods
  • Eliminate paper and 2D drawings
  • Collaborate remotely with browser-based 3D inspection reports
  • Save time, labor, and cost while improving product quality
